Abstract
The HPCMP CREATE-SH Integrated Hydrodynamic Design Environment (IHDE) is a workbench-like desktop application that integrates a suite of hull form design and analysis tools allowing a user to execute round-trip evaluations of hydrodynamic performance, including visualization, in a simplified and timely manner. Ship hull designers are able to assess ship performance in areas of resistance, seakeeping, hydrodynamic loads, and operability for several different mission types. The development plan calls for additional capabilities related to maneuvering performance and multi-objective optimization. The IHDE also includes an analysis tool validation engine, which provides the user with validation information by leveraging historical model test data for comparisons. The advantages of the IHDE include automated analysis preparation, automated grid generation, and integrated visualization. The IHDE has been used to support several Navy design studies and this paper describes the capabilities of IHDE and shows examples of typical workflow processes and sample analysis results.
